Artisan Vegan Food Is Coming To This Tampa Grocery Store

Quality Foods Gourmet Market in Tampa Bay, Florida celebrated their grand opening on Saturday, June 9th. Already, owners Emily and Christopher Houp have had an exceptional turn-out and it may have to do with the demand for vegan meats and cheeses in the Florida area.

Quality Foods Gourmet Market is the only specialty food store in Florida to sell products by the Herbivorous Butcher, which carefully crafts small-batch artisanal vegan meats and cheeses.

This husband and wife dream team are dedicated to providing exceptional food to their customers no matter what their dietary preference is. Christopher Houp is passionate about food, and he desires to support local food vendors and farmers markets by bringing their products to his store.

In addition to meat and cheese from the Herbivorous Kitchen, Quality Foods will also carry gluten-free and vegan products from local businesses like HaleLife Bakery and Mammoth Foods. Their grocery store will carry artisan items like sauces, salsa, baked goods, fresh bread, produce, spices, and pastries.

If you happen to be in the Tampa Bay area, be sure to visit Quality Foods Gourmet Market. Not only do they carry specialty vegan products, but they also sell homemade pasta, sandwiches, cheeses plates, and charcuterie boards that owner, Christopher, whips up back in the kitchen. They also sell local craft beer and fine, Italian wines.

Quality Foods Gourmet Market is located at 16307 N. Florida Avenue.
